While the Socialists are finally coming out about the reality of the costs that Obamacare will bring and the utter monstrosity it is, others of the Socialist Democrat Party are pushing for gun owners to be forced to purchase liability insurance for gun owners. Those that don’t could face fines of $10,000. We told you that when you open the floodgates of allowing the Federal government to mandate purchasing a product there would be more to come. Maloneycare is just another in a long line of legislation that will be coming down the pipe.
Representative Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) introduced her bill, H.R. 1369, along with eight other Socialists in the Democrat Party saying it would be “the first bill to require liability insurance of gun buyers nationwide.”
The Firearms Risk Protection Act of 2013 requires gun owners to have “a qualified liability insurance policy” before they can even buy a gun, a clear violation of the Second Amendment, which Socialists swear to uphold then seek to undermine.
However, this isn’t just about citizens who wish to purchase a firearm. It’s about those of us who already own them. Maloney and her comrades want to impose a $10,000 fine if you don’t purchase liability insurance.

Maloney and her comrades want to impose a $10,000 fine if you don’t purchase liability insurance
and a $10,000 fine if you do have liability insurance ,just to keep it fair
Chief Traitor John Roberts will not allow something so blatantly unconstitutional.
/s
Who is selling these policies?
Not paying for insurance or fine. Legal or not.
Glad you asked...I think it’s called Maloney Insurance Co.
:-)
So... Since I have an umbrella policy, I guess I’m covered.

Warren Buffett?
I’m fine w/ that, as long as the poofters are required to buy butt-sex insurance. /s
Unbelievable.
Next step - mandate insurance companies offer such insurance.
I'm sure there is no such thing now...
So, the libs are now promoting NRA membership? I just received an email last week from the NRA offering affordable insurance on my firearms.
Just guessing but wouldn’t this be akin to registration of firearms. I would suppose that the insurance company would need a list of ALL firearms in the house complete with serial numbers.
The same company that makes 7 round "clips" for New York.
Don'tcha just love mandates for things that don't exist.
Sounds like a back door method to gun registration. You don’t necessarily know the guns that are owned but you know who owns guns.
Make it a tax and it’s a slam dunk. Just ask Roberts.
** GUN CONTROL is not about guns. It is about CONTROL **
i’m not. homosexuals engage in far more risky behavior than law abiding gun owners do.
The only way to defeat the Communists.. Democrats is to stamd up to them and fight them. Since 2012 demonestrated that they now control the election process, at least to the extent that they need to, voting them out of office is out of the question. We are at this point in time down to two options, surrender or fight.
